• Notes

  David's family moved from Decatur in 1921 to Haskell, where he graduated from Haskell High School in 1930. He attended Austin College (Sherman, Texas) and what is now the University of North Texas (Denton). Because of the depression, he turned from pre-law to radio and continued in that field. He served in the Civilian Military Training Corps at Fort Sill, Oklahoma in 1930. After he married he moved to Stamford in 1945, where he built and owned Radio Station KDWT until 1960. In 1950 he was elected to the Texas House of Representatives where he served two terms. After the death of Harley Sadler in 1954, he was named through a sepecial election, as senator of the 24th district. The district stretched from Garza and Young counties in the north part of the state to Glasscock and Coleman counties in the south. He served as Senator until 1972. David was a charter member of Abilene Boys Club and was a Rotarian. He was a member of the Sons of the American Revolution, and a member of the Central Presybterian Church. David died at Stamford Memorial Hospital after a sudden illness. Services were held 11 a.m. Friday at Central Presbyterian Church in Stamford. !OBITUARY: "David W.
